For starters, I’ve always really loved the Ooga print fabrics. So much so that I’ve never been able to narrow my choices down to just one or two and haven’t committed to buying any. So when I was contacted by Tiffany to try out her fitted diaper I immediately gravitated to her in stock Ooga print and it’s so darn cute in person and the combinations of bluish purples and greens make it perfectly gender neutral.

Earth Mother Moon Baby diapers are made with an outside layer of knit or woven, inner layer of either bamboo or hemp fleece, OBV or minky. Soakers are two layers each of hemp or bamboo fleece topped with OBV or minky. So altogether there are 9 layers of fabric! Without even prepping, this diaper lasted coverless and through a nap on my nine month for 5 hours. Tiffany makes her diapers snapless and then customizes them upon ordering. We chose a single row of snaps and if there is a baby in the (hopefully VERY far) future I can always just add another row of snaps to create a fold down rise that can be worn on a smaller baby.

In addition to cloth diapers, Earth Mother Moon Baby Boutique offers items such as cloth pads, reusable nursing pads, wool dryer balls, ‘warmies’ leggings for babies & kids, and even things like slouchy hats for mom. Tiffany is seriously talented and I definitely envy her not only for being able to create so many items while keeping up with her kiddos (who are about the same ages as mine). I know I sure find myself with less time to create than I’d like so kudos to her for having figured out where that magic balance lies.

Parents across the globe are made to believe that potty training is some terrible right of passage that we must all push through with the two goals being no more diapers and still having some bit of sanity left. Amen, right? What if it doesn’t have to be?

When Natalia started fighting her diaper changes I knew our days of fluffy bums were coming to a close. Although, baby is only 8 months so I can still feed my -slight- addiction through her. I found a bunch of blog articles and armed myself with tips and techniques like sticker charts and potty toys/treats….

Make Your Own Cloth Diapers!

As easy as cloth diapering is, it’s even easier to custom make your own stash and fill it with prints and fabrics that you not only love, but that will work well for your baby. I’ve put together an easy to follow picture tutorial that highlights how to make your own diapers step by step. There is a link included to the newborn pattern I used. =)

Worried about that dirty diaper smell seeping out of you diaper pail? Pop a couple of these easy to make odor eliminating discs into the bottom of the pail. After a week or two just toss them into your wash load with your diapers. Plus, they’re totally cloth diaper safe . 😉

It can be a little overwhelming to decipher which accessories you need when you jump into cloth diapering. A diaper sprayer is one of those things that some people can’t stand and others can’t live without. Here’s my personal experience and opinion on this commonly used cloth diaper accessory.

Cloth Diapering: Newborn Edition

For someone who had never cloth diapered a newborn, it was a definite change for me when compared to diapering my toddler. Lucky for you, you can read through my experience with our second baby and gain a few valuable tips for taking on cloth diapering a newborn for yourself.

As much as I don’t want to admit it, cloth diapering isn’t all rainbows and unicorns. It has its benefits obviously but some people glorify cloth diapering so much that I think people who are new to cloth get started with the mentality that there are no negative aspects. Based off my personal experiences, decide for yourself if the pros outweigh the cons. (I think they do.)

Wet bags are a definite must have for cloth diapering. They provide a moisture-proof place to store you soiled cloth diapers while you’re out and about. I keep a couple in my diaper bag and even made a much larger one to use as a hanging wet bag in our home. This wet bag tutorial has only a few steps and can save you tons of money in comparison to those available on the market.

I have spent A LOT of money on diaper creams. I have always had to purchase one that was “cloth diaper safe”, and since they run approximately $10.00+ for a tube/jar, it can get costly. Therefore, I decided to make my own diaper cream and now you can too.

Now that you’re armed with some starter resources, enter the giveaway for the $100 gift card to Kelly’s Closet!
